What's wrong with this picture? It directly contradicts what Soul Calibur IV director Katsutoshi Sasaki said in a recent interview, that's what. Specifically, Sasaki responded "we don't have any plans for that" when asked by XCN if we'd ever see both characters from a galaxy far, far away battling each other on the same console.
You can't get much more official than the game's director, but his comments don't explain screenshots (such as the one above) and video that have appeared on the net clearly (and seemingly authentically) showing both Yoda and Vader in the same version of SCIV. We can't help but think Sasaki is practicing his Jedi mind tricks on us with this one.

Liars are funny. When this comes true, we learned a lesson. This jerk is a liar and can't be trusted.

I'm sure that Vader will be DLC on 360 and Yoda will be DLC on PS3. He's probably just saying otherwise because Sony and MS don't want it known that pretty soon there will be very little to differentiate the two skus.

All you people think that 360 owners all play as yoda and I have over 300 online matches and I've encountered yoda like twice...and both times it was someone new to the series. Yoda is cheap I won't lie, but he is not undefeatable. I actally have more trouble defeating Kilik and voldo than yoda, mainly cause voldo is confusing and gives me seizures. Anyway, there is a glitch to get vader in SC360, look it up it's too long for me to type on my iPod.

I haven't really been following this game at all cause I don't particularlly care for SC, but I figure the only way Vader could be fighting Yoda would be online. Does anyone know if there is online multiplayer between both systems?

I'm beginning to regret my purchase already. I can already tell that Namco's going to be a bitch about the DLC that does exist. Extra music, and a few helmets are out already. Wow. Wonderful. Hopefully we won't get medieval versions of the shitty, overpriced Idol M@ster-themed planes they released in Ace Combat 6.
How about taking ideas from the consumers instead of sitting on their ivory bowls and squeezing a few for us to gobble up?

unless of course you have to buy Force Unleashed to open them up - does the trick of readig your hard drive/memory card says hey you bought FU! Have vader / yoda you star wars fanboy you.
